The Chaires Capitola Volunteer Fire Department would like to take a moment to thank the members of our community who have helped with donations during our current fund drive. We have had a very good turn out and the donations continue to come in on a daily basis.

Our fund drive is conducted by a semi-annual mail-out,. We do not make solicitation phone calls. If you receive a phone call stating they are from the Chaires Capitola VFD requesting donations, please contact us at 942-4033 to let us know. We also occasionally conduct boot drives and car washes in or near our territory.

Electricity is constantly flowing through the wires in our homes, offices, grocery stores, and restaurants. It is energy that powers our lives. But that power can have a devastating affect if it’s not carefully used and monitored.
